After 3 episodes, I think I'm going to take it a little more slowly with #Bodyguard@netflix. In England it was a weekly series, so given the developments to this point, the show might be better served by my letting all that's happened sink in and live with me for a while.

Amusingly, lots of American viewers have remarked on the British accents in the drama.

The difference in pronunciation can lead to some confusion. For example, Sergeant David Budd’s use of the word “ma’am” when addressing his seniors in the police force (and the Home Secretary) can make it sound like he is talking to his mother… or as Americans would say – his “mom”.

Part of that stress comes from the fact that is sounds like they say mom , when they say mam??‍♀️ #britishaccents

Partway through the 2nd ep of #Bodyguard on @netflix and it’s pretty terrific so far. I’ve been a fan of creator Jed Mercurio’s from his excellent police corruption thriller, #LineofDuty. There’s 4 seasons available on @Hulu. Do yourself a favor and check them both out.
